The developers of hacker video technology DivX are going public, opening up much of their work to the open-source community.

DivX, which has no relation to the failed Circuit City DVD player, has spread quickly in underground computer circles as a way to create and send extremely high-quality video files online. While no DivX programmers have been sued, the technology has featured prominently in other antipiracy cases brought by the movie industry.

Since the release of that technology, the programmers behind DivX have been working on a new version dubbed "DivX Deux," which they promise will be more powerful. That's not here yet, but they've decided to throw open their code to other developers on the Net as a way to push the project along.

I've also read that you can use Windows Media Player on a Linux/Wine combination system.
